La Jetee is an incredible half-hour black and white low budget masterpiece that shouldn't be missed. It's available on instant watch from Netflix.
+1 for Colossus: The Forbin Project.
I loved Alphaville.
Edit: On the Beach. Them (the giant ants!)

Equilibrium (social sci-fi not space sci-fi)
Gattaca (social sci-fi not space sci-fi)

Futurama movies q= (animated)
+1 for Reign of Fire ("middle earth" sci-fi)
+1 for Serenity

I know some good space sci-fi books if those at all interest you...
EDIT: a bonus BAD sci-fi movie(s & tv show): Honey I Shrunk the Kids

Ooo, another I forgot. +1 to Serenity.
One cool thing about Serenity: the sound is AWESOME. It's like another character in the film. So watch it on 5.1 with a killer subwoofer, or better. The ship's engines will rattle your windows!
I have THX Select 2 Plus certified receiver and 5.1 speaker setup that was just calibrated with included calibration microphone. The sub I have is Definite Technology Supercube I (goes down to 13Hz
). Maybe one day I uprade to the Trinity Signature model.
Anyone interested in some chinese made movies? (Off topic for this thread... sorry.) I was very pleasantly surprised about the "Red Cliff". It is an avesome 2 DVD (long!) movie with very good storyline, sounds and visuals, easily rivals anything that Hollywood has ever made. Another my favorites is "Kung Fu Hustle", and if you liked that then "Shaolin Soccer" (also called as "Kung Fu Soccer") you'll like too. The latter two have few so funny schemes that you just can't stop laughing...

I think you forgot maybe the best Sci-fi/Horror movie (in my opinnion). you have to watch Event Horizon, it is a great movie. Its from 1993 but it is still awesome

When I was young I saw this soft science fiction film (50s? 60s? 70s?) where a guy from Earth was helping some woman from another planet. I think it was set in Europe. One thing I remember is that the woman had a slightly elongated head.
Someone was after her I think and toward the end she disappeared-- then years later the man is introduced to a little girl who looks just like her, head and all. The assumption is that the earth man and alien woman were genetically compatible, and the girl was their daughter.
Anyway I have tried for decades to find out what that movie was. Maybe someone here has seen it?
